AIR POLLUTION CAUSES MORE DEATH THAN 2ND HAND TOBACCO SMOKE;

 

...so why does the University of Victoria ban smoking on campus, and not cars?

 

...and why does this medicinal marijuana smoker have to gimp along on bad knees and medicate next to a parking lot full of cars and traffic, often standing in the rain?

WHO estimates more than 2 million people die every year from breathing in tiny particles present in indoor and outdoor air pollution.

 

The main findings contained in the new compilation are:

•Persistently elevated levels of fine particle pollution are common across many urban areas. Fine particle pollution often originates from combustion sources such as power plants and motor vehicles.

•The great majority of urban populations have an average annual exposure to PM10 particles in excess of the WHO Air Quality guideline recommended maximum level of 20 µg/m3. On average, only a few cities currently meet the WHO guideline values.

•For 2008, the estimated mortality attributable to outdoor air pollution in cities amounts to 1.34 million premature deaths.

interesting findings of recent study on air pollution in US cities

 

The annual death toll from particle pollution may be even greater than previously understood. An agency’s estimation of premature deaths in California is tripled from particle pollution to 18,000 annually .

I smoke two joints in the morning.

I smoke two joints at night.

I smoke two joints in the afternoon, it makes me feel alright

I smoke two joints in time of peace, and two in time of war

I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints,

And then I smoke two more
